CO2 Laser Marking System
In the evolving world of industrial manufacturing, CO₂ laser marking machines have become a key technology for efficient, high-quality, and versatile marking. By harnessing the power of carbon dioxide lasers, these systems enable fast, non-contact engraving, etching, and marking on a wide range of non-metallic materials, making them well suited for high-throughput production environments.
CO₂ laser marking technology excels on materials such as plastics, wood, paper, rubber, leather, glass, textiles, and coated surfaces. With stable beam delivery and consistent output, these machines produce clean edges and durable marks at high speeds, supporting applications including packaging, consumer goods, electronics enclosures, signage, and product branding.
United Spectrum Instruments is the authorised distributor of LASIT Laser CO₂ laser marking machines in India, providing application expertise, system integration support, and reliable after-sales service to ensure consistent marking quality and long-term performance.
Understanding CO₂ Laser Marking Technology
CO₂ lasers produce a 10.6-micrometer wavelength infrared beam by electrically exciting a carbon dioxide gas mixture.
The relatively long wavelength enables superior absorption by organic materials and many composites, making CO₂ lasers highly effective for engraving and marking:
- Plastics
- Wood
- Fabrics
- Glass
- Ceramics
- Laminates
